This fight was awesome...minus Joe's commentary . I completely agree that something (sickness/weight cut) slowed Aldo down. Look at the Faber fight. He went the entire fight without any problems.

What was funny to me was the prefight comments by Hominick. He said that Aldo had never faced a fighter with his elite level of striking. That, to me, is like Shields saying that GSP has never faced anyone with his elite level of wrestling. Just comical. Then, a gassed Aldo was still avoiding 80% of Hominicks shots with head movement alone. It brought me back to Silva vs. Forrest fight. Loved it.

I only wish that Aldo was bigger so we could have a fight between him and either Jones or Silve. Would be an incredibly fun stand up war.

And on a side note, Hominick deserved his monster FOTN bonus for that mass on his forehead alone

Let's differentiate between the term "excuse" and "reason". Being sick is not an excuse for fighting poorly, it's a valid REASON.
Mad props to Aldo for fighting through it and coming out victorious despite his obvious sickness, he will reign champ for a long time!

This part to me was amazing. I don't know how people could watch that fight and not be wowed. Aldo was light years ahead of Hominick in the striking.

either mendes is gonna beat him i think, that world class bjj did jack shite all night too

thats exactly what I was thinking too, after all the hype on his great BJJ they we so rarely get to see as Rogan keeps saying, when finally he had the chance and was on the ground against a guys whos basis is striking, there was not even an attempt to pass guard, or even an attempt to sweep or even gain wrist control from his back in the 5th.

To be perfectly honest aside from sharp elbows the ground game he displayed was worthless.

I want Edgar to go down to 145 and take his title, then we can call Edgar the P4P killer because I don't honestly rate Aldo as a true worthy fighter to claim the P4P status they are giving him, I think Kenny Florian could well take his belt via submission on the ground.
